In Castle Pals, you guide two brave friends, Kylee and Owen, through the dangerous levels of Castle Pookapick. Each level is an action-packed, short challenge filled with traps, spikes, and enemies that you must carefully navigate to reach the end.
The twist is that you don’t control both heroes at once, but alternate between them depending on the level’s requirements. Kylee handles the combat by punching and kicking her way through foes, while Owen relies on a propeller hat to fly over gaps and avoid danger altogether. The bite-sized stages are perfect for quick sessions, and the optional speedrun targets give you a reason to replay and optimize your runs.
Controls
- Move: Arrow Keys or WASD
- Action (Attack/Fly): Z, X, or Spacebar
- Mobile/Tablet: Use on-screen touch buttons for movement and actions.
Tips that actually help
- Learn the character limits: Owen’s propeller hat doesn’t fly infinitely. Time your flights to make sure you have enough lift to clear long gaps.
- Patience with Kylee: While Kylee is strong, her range is short. Wait for enemies to finish their attack patterns before rushing in for a punch.
- Chase the gold times: Once you beat a level, replay it immediately while the layout is fresh in your memory to easily snag the gold speedrun medal.
